This is an amazing park that has so many areas to wander with so many features to enjoy.
It is well-maintained as well which is highly appreciated.
I have known the shoe as राणीचा बूट for many years now but never got a chance to visit.
This shoe appeared in the famous Business game नवा व्यापार and the cost of this place was perhaps Rupees 800 😊
Excellent photos and collages @Rohan10
You have captured all accessible places perfectly 👍
